What it’s like
The place. Bloomington is a community in San Bernardino County with a young population, where the typical resident is younger than in many American towns. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and households earn somewhat less than the county's typical household. A four-year degree is held by fewer adults here than is usual across the country.
Work. Many residents work in transport, warehouses and utilities, in shops, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in the building trades. Among the largest workplaces in Bloomington are Amazon, R+L Carriers and Distribution Alternatives. The typical commute is a long one, and few people work from home.
Things to do. Lytle Creek, a river, is a short drive away, as is the San Dimas Experimental Forest, a protected area. Riverside's Museum of Riverside is also a short drive off. Big Bear Lake, a reservoir, is a longer drive. Winters are mild and summers are hot, with little or no snow and not much rain through the year.

Natural hazards
- EarthquakesRelatively high
- Inland floodingRelatively high
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Bloomington’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on San Bernardino County and the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA metro.
